“In addition to offering robust digital access and sales support, the new Architectural Solutions Team will act as a comprehensive project partner for our clients, delivering the best customer service experience in the market,” said Kyle McEnroe, Vice President of Sales for Kingspan Light + Air. “Whether it’s a facility modernization or a start-from-scratch new design, our Architectural Solutions Team can determine the most effective daylighting solution to provide outstanding and groundbreaking annual daylighting performance for our energy-savings and occupant health and wellbeing.”

According to the news release, the team’s services will include daylight modeling, system performance analysis, writing and developing specifications, an initial structural review, and documentation for compliance and testing.
